I know the title is vague sorry but i need some advice if your willing to give it.

I have been working hard to rebuild my credit for the last 2 years my fico has gone from a 440 to a 575 eq and 612 tu.. I have financed 3 car loans through 

springleaf fin. in the last 2 years and paid off two of them.. I have a good credit mix now and low utilization ratio... its the COs and Forclosure and old colleections thats killing my credit. (all over 2 years old) 

my objective is to buy a car in the 15k-20k range but i dont want to pay springleafs 24% interest. can someone guide me to the best way to get a lower rate with out multiple inquires?

thanks so much!!!

I'd go to a dealer and let the finance department shop for a loan. I have bought 2 new cars in the last 4 months, and the dealerships beat any other offers I had from my CU.

I would start shopping at credit unions first. A coworker got approved for like 9% with a 601 at a credit union. Then also shop the dealership, because they love to beat rates.
